Hume, 36 years old.
A loyal knight branded a traitor.
A captain in the Order of the Knights of Dalamasca, Bash achieved renown as a gallant and brave hero credited with countless victories on the battlefield. He is a man of justice who cannot abide inequity.

Unlike the other captains, who are chosen from the aristocracy, Bash is of common blood and enjoyes the love of the people, until he inexplicably murders the King on the eve of a treaty-signing with Archadia, He is led away in chains.

The only child of King Raminas and sole heir to the Dalmascan throne, Ashe is believed dead following the invasion. She meets Vaan and the others under the most unlikely of circumstances.

Ashe knows all too well she lacks the power right the wrongs committer against her and her kingdom, but she will not allow herseld to admit defeat.

Hume, 22 years old.
A dashing sky pirate.
He would describe himself as a noble thief, stealing only from those who deserve it. He goes where he pleases, swearing fealty to no one. While roaming the skies of Ivalice with Fran, his viera partner, he still makes time to charm the ladies with his silder tongue and put wrongs to right - grinning all the while

Viera, age unknown
A master of weapons.
A viera warrior, Fran is as much at ease with a sword as she is her bare hands. Her proficiency with a blade is matched only by her skill with a wrench, as she also handles the maintenance of Balthiers's airship, the Strahl. The lifespan of the viera is far greater than that of humes, and many secrets lie hidden in her long history. Yet the divide of the race does nothing to diminish the bond of trust between her and Balthier.
